William Gibbs

William has a diverse and extensive professional background. Formerly a healthcare executive with extensive experience running heart and vascular institutes. In 2011 William started his own company, Renuil, a wellness company focussing on the underlying causes precluding people from living a healthy life. Sadly in 2014 William had to close the business and began a short lived employment journey seeking certainty and stability running a customer escalation team at Verizon Wireless. William’s now known allergy to conventional employment prompted him to leave corporate america and start Domain with his fiance, Ben Hartman.
